PROCHÁZKOVÁ, Nikol
This thesis describes possibilities of physiotherapy for children under 15 years of age suffering from headaches associated with low back problems. Nowadays, children sit prolongated periods of time using computers and mobile phones. It often leads to poor posture, which can cause headaches. Improper sitting leads to weakening of trunk muscles, kyphotic spine, and neck muscle group overload. The aim of this study is to explore vertebral problems associated with headaches and propose specific options of physiotherapy to improve overall posture. The study consists of theoretical and practical parts. The theoretical part describes the anatomy of a spine and its connection to a head, and headache causes. Then it describes possibilities of physiotherapy to be used in case of a vertebral headache and issues. The practical part was processed by means of qualitative research. It consists of study objectives, methodology and results of the research. In a test group there were three children aged 9 to 15, two boys and one girl. Therapy was carried out every week for two months. Based on an input kinesiology test, each test person was assigned a short- and long-term rehabilitation and exercise plan. At the end of the therapy, the subjects had output kinesiology examination, the results were compared, and also evaluated by the subjects. The process is documented by photographs of the entry and exit inspections and sample exercises. With all test subjects, the headache receded, the respiratory stereotype was corrected and overall posture improved.
